Large Testicles posted:IDK if it actually means anything but on Finnegan's most recent video he got a signed NOFX flag from a fan that he was stupid happy about and was like, "They're one of my favorite bands." The thing is, RATM and NOFX aren't death metal bands, they're about what Zack and Fat Mike are saying whereas death metal lyrics are incredibly campy by-and-large. So one saying they don't pay attention to the lyrics, bonus points if Favorite Band title is claimed, tells me they really don't give a poo poo and their record collection begins and ends with, "Now That's What I Call Music" compilations. tl;dr: Paul Ryan is a basic-rear end white guy

Rare Brunning good take. ...but also  that he's such a tory and isn't enjoying what he voted for. loving idiot."they should COMPETENTLY gently caress over people, not bumble around like dipshits and get found out about how they've been taking money from back handers and just brazenly paying companies they have interests in".

The foundations of the Nazi party were being laid. I have been called out as Jewish by neonazis quite literally more this last year than I had been in my entire life previously, simply because of my last name. And it went up by orders of magnitude from 2015 on. It's getting *really* bad now. GOP run states are basically banning women's healthcare, history, and the act of existing as an LGBT person. You're failing an open book test bro. We know what is coming, and you're insisting it's not really that bad while the fire spreads. You are literally being the "this is fine" dog here and now.

The current political era is a continuation of policies laid out in the Reagan-Thatcher era. That much is indisputable. But saying it's more of the same is, at best, understating the sharp rise in intensity that we've seen since Trump's political ascension in 2015/2016. At worst, it's missing the point that the mask hasn't slipped further--they've willingly taken it off now.

Dr. Lunchables posted:I don’t think anyone’s arguing against anyone else here. Sometimes we get lost in the weeds, but it’s important to keep perspective. we’re doing the D&D thing where we argue past each other but I think everybody here is largely in agreement. my intent isn’t to downplay the rise in overt right wing politics over the past few years, I just reject the notion that this is somehow unprecedented or new. Right wing separatists in the 90s literally blew up federal buildings and got into deadly firefights with the FBI. Bill Clinton, representing the explicit rightward capitulation of the nominally “left/labor” wing of mainstream U.S. politics, only won the presidency with like 43% of the vote because of right wing ticket splitting between GHW Bush and H Ross Perot. Meanwhile we were in the middle of the original AIDS/HIV response, which could be credibly described as “explicitly genocidal” in its treatment of LGBTQ people, addicts, PoC, sex workers, and other undesirables. Centrist/Corporate Democrats are really invested in making you believe that Trump is this new anomalous thing that could never have been anticipated or prevented because they need you to buy into the established neoliberal order and political systems that facilitated his rise/this country’s descent. In the aftermath of the 80s Democrats (along with Labour in the UK and liberal parties around the world) accepted an explicitly Right Wing worldview and framing of contemporary society and economics. In lieu of providing any kind of alternative, they fell to “there is no problem with their framing, only their competence and execution. We can do exactly what they’re doing, provide you with the same outcomes and ‘solutions’ that they’re promising, but much more effectively and intelligently”. “Want a national police crackdown on black and brown trilobite terror fucked around with this message at 15:07 on Feb 23, 2023 |
